Emily Dickinson : daughter of prophecy

Author:	Beth Maclay Doriani
Publisher:	Amherst, Mass. : University of Massachusetts Press, ©1996.
Edition/Format:	Book : State or province government publication : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	How do women, historically excluded from the role of preacher because of their gender, gain authority to assume a prophetic voice? What rhetorical strategies can empower the woman who would claim the role of prophet? In this book, Beth Maclay Doriani looks at the ways Emily Dickinson addressed these questions in the context of patriarchal nineteenth-century New England.
